 XTC Forum - The Stranglers
Basically, I like all of the Stranglers albums with Hugh Cornwell except perhaps for "Dreamtime" which is a tad too commercial for me....I think my favorite Stranglers album would probably be "The Raven" but "Black and White" "La Folie" "The Gospel According to the MenInBlack" are also great.
The early albums are rough but one can tell that The Stranglers were almost "playing down" (kind of like the early Police I guess) which is to say that they are better musicians than the punky vibe they are trying to be part of.
To me, Dreamtime is by far their worst album....All personality has vanished in pursuit of chart success.
